Gopher Mound
Our typical approach for gopher eradication Wildomar, CA residential and commercial gopher removal is a combination of traps and carbon monoxide. We do not use the normal poisonous bait which is strychnine or gopher poison similar to rat poison. We have found their effectiveness is limited and the danger to your dogs, cats and children and other wildlife along with predatory birds is high.
Because of this Rodent Guys gopher eradication Wildomar starts out with setting traps in the gopher tunnels near recent gopher activity on your Wildomar property. Most traps are placed inside the gopher’s tunnel using markers showing their locations. Rodent Guys normally will let the gopher traps sit for 1-7 days varying on schedule, weather and the technician’s recommendation.
When Rodent Guys arrive to pick-up the traps all of the dead gophers will be removed out of the tunnels which is the 1st phase of our gopher eradication Wildomar. After the trapping we will use our carbon monoxide machines to funnel carbon monoxide gas into the gopher burrow taking care of any more gophers in the tunnel including the young in the nest. Using 2 differnt techniques such as these offers fantastic gopher control allowing us to offer the best guarantee.
What reason do we not use gopher poison]?
Various poison baits are available for controlling gophers in Wildomar, Ca but few of them work effectively. This includes the commercial strength of gopher poison available to us, a licensed pest control company, has poor results. Strychnine is reported to be mearly fifty to sixty percent effective as a standalone method of gopher control. We have seen with these poisons a little higher than that but still not high enough.
Besides gopher poison not having good control for gopher extermination it is also extremely dangerous to pets and wildlife as well as a child. At times gophers will eject poison out of their tunnels if they don’t intend to eat it (this happens commonly). When the gopher bait is pushed above ground it is now in reach for anyone (children, dogs, cats and other wildlife) to consume the lethal bait on your Wildomar property. Strychnine has no antidote and kills in around 30 minutes.
The other way for exposure to the poison is if a dog digs down n the burrow going after the gopher and gets into the lethal bait. Don’t let pest control companies fool you, the main tunnels are not multiple feet below the surface in Wildomar. The tunnels on your property are two to eight inches down and easy to dig since the tunneling removed quite a bit of the soil previously.
The last way for your pet or wildlife to get poisoned by gopher bait is by consuming a dead or dying gopher that ate the poison. The poison is still in the gopher’s stomach and when your pet eats the gopher he he eats the poison as well. If you own dogs it is highly recommended to not use gopher bait and don’t let pest control companies serving Wildomar tell you it is safe – it is not.

What is the purpose of carbon monoxide?
We know customers want their gopher problem solved quickly. Since we follow our trapping program up with a carbon monoxide treatment we have now used a totally different technique utilizing a different technology to help ensure the best chances of full gopher eradication in Wildomar.
The carbon monoxide fills the gopher burrow system with an unbreathable environment which only needs them to breath as a method of control. The whole system which is connected by tunneling is filled with this deadly gas in around thirty seconds and will eliminate gophers within the tunnels including babies in the nest. Once the machines are turned off the gas quickly dissipates out of the gopher tunnels. Above ground people and pets are unaffected by the gasses down in the tunnel. Our machines are registered and approved by EPA and State of California regulations for everyone’s safety for use in Wildomar, Ca.
